AMS2 GT1 (3x 20m sprint) @ Spa historic => Thursday 25

[Yannik Haustein]

Just a heads up: Got another one who's interested but not quite sure if he can make it on time. That would make it +6 for me

 

[Guido Trampe]

Lol great. Just to make sure. These are all fair racing drivers? That is the main element in the AMS2 racing club series, hard bur fair racing. No T1 warriors (and still this is a hit and miss sometimes ). Also, there are 3races planned. No issue if he misses one. there are no championship points to give (yet).

 

[Yannik Haustein]

Yeah, they are all good with that. Some of them are relative newcomers but try their best to learn as much as they can. Others are a bit faster but still fair - I'll emphasize that this is supposed to be a fun event before we get started just to be sure

 

[Redvaliant]

Are they RD members? or is this an open server? I can change the password to off if you want it open.

 

[Yannik Haustein]

Nope, they're not on here as far as I know. Guido just had the idea to join forces for this one to ensure a healthy grid after the two groups randomly raced together last week and had a good time
I can shoot them the password too, so it wouldn't have to be an open server

 

[Redvaliant]

Okay, but sharing our Premium Racing passwords outside of Premium members is verboten. I'd suggest for this one-off, that this password is okay to share but going forward the server password will need to be changed. Otherwise the whole idea of Premium membership is rendered moot.
Also, Yannik, if you wish to stream this race you need to get the OK from everyone on the server. Most ppl are fine with that, but you do need to ask.

 

[Yannik Haustein]

Okay, that's good to know! I was planning on streaming this, but with the other guys (read: ze Germans) in our own voice chat, so there'd be no need for the rest of you guys to watch what you're saying Everyone okay with that?

 

[H_Belane]

A question about the skinpacks.
Do the "dist" files have to stay in the folder?

 

[Guido Trampe]

I just add and when the message “overwrite” appears I press yes. Works all the time….

When you stream (if no objections) please mention that this is organised by RD and that annyone can join if the become Premium member please.

 

[Guido Trampe]

Small heads up… no rain tonight… that wouldnt be realistic in the current EU situation . We do however end up in a situation where you will be in trouble if you forget to asign a headlight button .

 

[Rich Green]

I have some work to do. This is a great sim though.

 

[H_Belane]

A great event!
What I have to say is that I destroyed Yannik's third race.
Braked too late in the first corner. Clearly my fault.

As I said in chat, AMS 2 is a surprisingly good game. Awesome graphics, driving great too. I'm already looking forward to the next events.

 

[GeekyDeaks]

Had an absolute blast in the McLaren. I just love the way the back end goes a little loose, but doesn't simply spit you out off the track. I misjudged someone coming back on track for the final race and it ended my race a bit prematurely, but I got to watch some nice battles, especially the three make one between @Yannik Haustein @T1MKO and @Lloyd Johnston

Thanks again @Guido Trampe

Oh, and @Yannik Haustein, just a reminder to share the link to your stream!

 

[T1MKO]

I had 2 good races in the Merc and a not so good in the porker.
Needed a bit more practice I think, was getting faster in each race and had a couple of good scraps.
Thanks Guido more like this please.

 

[T1MKO]

I have some work to do. This is a great sim though.

Rich, keep at it, you will get faster with more races.

 

[Rich Green]

Rich, keep at it, you will get faster with more races.

I have 2 other AMS2 races lined up and I’ll keep my eyes peeled for the next one of these, they’re good fun.

 

[T1MKO]

Perhaps we could put Hank in a VW Polo in the next race, we might be able to keep up then

 

[Yannik Haustein]

That was loads of fun! No idea how I came second in the McLaren in the first race, but it sure felt like a nice achievement.
You can find my VOD here, but don't expect much of an intellectual conversation in there - we were mostly making bad jokes all night

 

[Guido Trampe]

It was not my intension to do a fixed setup race with these cars. Had me a homebaked setup for the MCL aswell. It did turn out real good though with some nice battles on all places. I my opinion free setups bennefit the very fast drivers more then the average like myself.
Please tell me what you prefer going forward. Fixed or free setup?
Next week will be more GT1
